Interseismic deformation above the Sunda Megathrust recorded in coral microatolls of the Mentawai islands, West Sumatra [PDF]

, 2007
The geomorphology and internal stratigraphy of modern coral microatolls show that all the outer arc Mentawai islands of West Sumatra have been subsiding over the past several decades.

Sub-parallel fault afterslip and weak zone relaxation after the 2024 Noto earthquake

Communications Earth & Environment
Postseismic deformation carries valuable information about the complex fault system and deep rheological structure. We analyzed ~6 months of postseismic deformation following the 2024 moment magnitude 7.5 Noto earthquake using InSAR and GNSS data ...

Preearthquake and Postearthquake Creep on the Imperial Fault and the Brawley Fault Zone [PDF]

, 1982
Taken together, 12 years of alinement-array data, 4 years of creepmeter records from four instruments, and 2 years of surveys from two nail files suggests that creep events on the Imperial fault 2 to 5 months before the October 15 earthquake are ...

On the velocity-strengthening behavior of dry friction

, 2014
The onset of frictional instabilities, e.g. earthquakes nucleation, is intimately related to velocity-weakening friction, in which the frictional resistance of interfaces decreases with increasing slip velocity.

Integrated Investigation on Heterogeneous Lower Crust Rheology in Kyushu and Afterslip Behavior Following the 2016 Mw7.1 Kumamoto Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters
The viscoelastic lower crust beneath Kyushu Island, influenced by the volcanic arc, interplays with active crustal faults in this region and helps to shape local tectonics.

Small interseismic asperities and widespread aseismic creep on the northern Japan subduction interface

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
The canonical model of fault coupling assumes that slip is partitioned into fixed asperities that display stick‐slip behavior and regions that creep stably.
